Do you remember once upon a time, when you were mine?
The stars above were bright and new-I pulled them down for you
Just when I fell in love again, you said that all good things must end
BABY....THAT´S JUST THE WAY IT IS BABY (WHOAH WHOAH)
BABY....THAT´S JUST THE WAY IT IS BABY
I´ve never had a hand for solitaire-It´s so unfair
That I should have my chance and lose-I feel like I´ve been used
To help you through another night-You spelled it out in black and white
(CHORUS)
The tides that once had carried you away, they bring you back today
The time has washed away my pain-I find that things have changed
And disappeared without a trace-You can´t get back what you´ve erased
And I say (CHORUS to fade)
